Dec. 8th, 2005 07:03 pmLast day of classes now; I just have my 3-hour Anthro lecture at 6pm, and then I'm FINISHED! Well, except for the exams, but whatever.
I am *so* tired; I can't wait to be able to sleep in again. I don't think I've gotten more than 4 hours a night for the last two weeks.
Blurg. So, catch-up news: finished Nano on time (just by a couple hours . . . eep!) and am now revising. I think I might cut out the first 23k entirely, and just expand the stuff that happens in Ribanoak . . . the travelling part is pretty dull overall, and doesn't have much significance to the plot. So far I've written a new first scene, changed the history of Jorna and Jorna & Rulik's friendship. I really, really, want to get this written, but I'm so lacking in energy right now, thanks to the Term Papers of Hell. Maybe over the break. I'm still having a bit of awkwardness with the point of view - I don't know what it is, but it's bugging me majorly and slowing down the writing process. It seems so far that the only improvments to the second draft will be plotting, not narration.
I'm considering cutting out Rotam entirely - I don't like writing her, so she always comes out as rather 2-D. It's too bad, though, I enjoyed the dynamic . . . maybe I'll keep her as a side chara?
